It talks back.

Whether you're pushing through a HIIT session, flowing through Surya
Namaskar, grinding a deep work block, or simply boiling pasta — Talking
Timer guides you through every second with a real, natural voice that
matches the moment. Not a robotic beep. Not a generic buzz. A voice that
actually fits what you're doing.

──────────────────────────────────────────
VOICE PERSONALITIES BUILT FOR EACH MOMENT
──────────────────────────────────────────

Every preset and routine is paired with a voice personality designed
specifically for it:

🕐 Time Keeper — Clean, calm, and precise. For simple timers where you
just need to know where you are without distraction.

🔥 Motivating Coach — High energy and genuinely encouraging. Knows when
to push you hard and when to let you recover. Built for HIIT and interval
training.

🌿 Soft Guide — Calm and focused. Designed for Pomodoro and deep work
sessions where you need a steady, non-intrusive presence that keeps you
on track without breaking your flow.

🧘 Yoga Teacher — Slow, deliberate, and grounding. Guides you through
each pose of your Surya Namaskar by name, with breath cues that feel like
a real instructor is in the room. (Currently only available for Surya Namaskar Quick Preset)

──────────────────────────────────────────
READY-TO-USE PRESETS
──────────────────────────────────────────

Jump straight in with presets built and tested for real use:

⚡ HIIT Timer — Set your work and rest durations, number of sets, and go.
Your coach counts you in, pushes you at halfway, screams at the last ten
seconds, and celebrates when you're done.

🙏 Surya Namaskar — All 12 poses, in sequence, spoken aloud with breath
direction and pose guidance. Choose your pace. The Yoga Teacher takes care of the rest.

🍅 Pomodoro — Classic focus cycles with configurable work and break
durations. The Soft Guide eases you into each session and gives you
genuine permission to rest when it's time.

⏱ Simple Timer — When you just need a clean countdown with a voice that
tells you where you stand. Nothing more, nothing less.

──────────────────────────────────────────
BUILD YOUR OWN ROUTINES
──────────────────────────────────────────

The Routine Builder lets you create fully custom sessions from scratch.
Add as many steps as you need — each with its own label, action duration,
rest duration, and prep time. Choose the voice personality that fits your
routine. Save it, name it, and run it any time with a single tap.

Build a morning workout sequence. A custom stretching routine. A
study-break cycle. A cooking multi-timer. If it has steps and timing,
Talking Timer can run it.

──────────────────────────────────────────
DESIGNED TO GET OUT OF YOUR WAY
──────────────────────────────────────────

✅ Runs in the background — screen off, music playing, it keeps going and
keeps talking.

✅ Natural time input — enter durations as hours, minutes, and seconds.
No mental math, no converting to seconds manually.

✅ Halfway cues, last-ten countdowns, rest prompts, and completion
messages — the voice knows where you are in your session and responds
accordingly.

✅ No account required. No subscription to start. Download and go.

happening instead of beeping at them

time is spent moving, creating, or focusing.
